NG Ratings (adult/teen/etc.) 2014-12-27 08:46:14


So the NG maturity ratings: everyone/teen/mature/adult are used to help children avoid seeing pornographic and/or violent material that they are too young to see.

I definitely feel that seeing and playing violent movies/games leads to violent behavior in real life. As well as pornographic material, especially the kind depicted on this site leading to debasement of women and a general lack of respect for the holiness of both matrimony and the coupling between a man and a woman for the purpose of child.

I love god and have studied the bible for most of my life and as a result, am not as easily corrupted by viewing these things.

But I understand that many of the sadly ignorant faithless youth of these days are more easily corrupted by this smut.

My question is, to what authority can I report NG when a video should have been marked A but was only marked M, T, or E. Or should have been marked M but was marked T or E. Etc.

I appreciate the maturity settings. And I feel that for them to be utilized properly in the eyes of the law (both of the land and of our souls), NG should be held to a higher standard.

The link function fucked up. Just copy and paste the full URL to the address bar or something.

"My parents didn't have to worry about me looking at naughty websites when I was young, but they did have to worry about me looking at pornographic magazines and playing with guns - which is why it is even more important that you teach your child to do the right thing. A well-informed child knows right from wrong, and can distinguish fantasy from reality. If your child can't, then your problem is much bigger than this website."

Hey, I'm here too...

Pornography leading to possibly awful behavior? Possibly.

I don't think porn or violent games cause any behavior alterations. Until I see actual evidence of this, I remain behind my point.

Violence? Are you seriously kidding me? Violence has actually dropped a lot since games came out. You're just running with what the media mindlessly feeds you because the dumbfucks are always quick to blame video games rather than trying to actually investigate and see what actually caused the event.......

Is this kind of vindictiveness and hostility really necessary? Supporting a less common viewpoint shouldn't warrant this.

Thank you for understanding this.

Most people disagree with me on this and even if I'm wrong, I hate when minority opinions get squelched.

Or just mention it to the author in your Review, i've seen users getting the ratings wrong at first but then changing it to the correct one after someone in the review section comments on it.
